  1. Sheffield council tenants change of conditions have come through, what a bunch of idiots. Nowhere do they mention how to pay cash for your rent, they want it direct debit. Quick google shows the law says "as long as you have tried to pay with legal tender, you cannot be sued for monies owed". Chas is legal tender, so if they stop taking cash, doesn't that make them trying to have direct debit only illegal?

      Metr0Land offer's some sound advice! I'd assume full details of payment options are available on their website or helpline. Personally I'd be very wary of any landlords insisting on cash payments. That just strikes me as landlords trying to eliminate an audit trail. I'd very much want evidence of the payments leaving one account and being received by another.

      Re6/6 it was indeed the same Mr Lane that you are referring too! Confirmed on facebook earlier today from the man himself! :-)

      Rumour has it (although I can't confirm its origins) that Craig was kidnapped by a scouse girl, locked in her basement, and he's ditched model railways to take up cross stitch! :-)

      Time for my nerdish side to show through (well actually my lucky side) ;-) Bit of bed time reading last night (to avoid revision) shows 73068 on the up mail! :-)

      Kempenfelt

      I came to the same conclusion as Ian.....however you could always swap the tender (or exchange the whole loco) and consider 73087 or 73116? A nice partner to 73051!
